Elbert missed the entire 2013 season after undergoing three operations on his left elbow. He had scar tissue removed Sept. 19 last year, debridement of cartilage in a different area of the elbow Jan. 23, and Tommy John reconstruction June 7 that will keep him out through the first half of 2014. He earned $505,000 last season and has a $575,000 Major League salary for 2014.

Baxter was claimed off waivers from the Mets on Oct. 17. The 28-year-old is a left-handed hitter who played in 74 games with the Mets in 2013, hitting .189. He is a corner outfielder and was a fourth-round pick of the Padres in 2005, then was claimed off waivers by the Mets in 2011. His Major League salary will be $700,000.

Butera was acquired by the Dodgers for insurance on July 31 from Minnesota for Minor League pitcher Miguel Sulbaran, but spent August at Triple-A, hitting .135, and played in only four games with the Dodgers during a September callup. He earned $700,000 last season and has a $700,000 Major League salary for 2014.

Remaining Dodgers eligible for arbitration who will be tendered contracts are Clayton Kershaw, A.J. Ellis, Kenley Jansen and Ronald Belisario.
